[Mvpmc-devel] Less clear cut patches

[Steven J. <py...@li...>]

Greetings,

I have a few more patches, but they're less clear cut than the last set. I 
will happily send a pull request for any you find interesting:

1. vlcfix requests 30fps rather than 29.97 so that newer versions of VLC 
can be used as a transcoding server. I have no idea how older versions of 
VLC might react.

2. configfix adds an additional try to fetch dongle.config from the fixed 
host name 'mvpconfig'. On my LAN, I have a DHCP server that cannot serve 
tftp at all. For booting the MVP, my media server has a dhcp and tftp 
server on the alternate ports 16867 and 16869. That gets it to load the 
dongle, but when it boots it gets it's address from the primary DHCP and 
so tries to get dongle.config there as well.

This one seems unlikely to break anyone's existing setup. It may or may 
not be of general interest.

3. UDPremote. The MVP listens on UDP port 16000 for packets containing 
keypresses. I have a companion program for my Android to send the packets. 
That way I will never misplace the original remote :-)

G'day,
sjames
